Identity and Access Management

Identity Authentication

You can access CodeArts Governance through its UI, APIs, and SDKs. Regardless of the access mode, your requests are sent through RESTful APIs provided by CodeArts Governance.

CodeArts Governance APIs can be accessed only after requests are authenticated.

CodeArts Governance supports two authentication modes:

  • Token: Requests are authenticated using tokens. By default, token authentication is required to access the CodeArts Governance console.
  • AK/SK: Requests are encrypted using an AK (Access Key ID)/SK (Secret Access Key). Authentication using AK/SK is recommended because it provides higher security than authentication using tokens.

Access Control

CodeArts Governance works with Identity and Access Management (IAM). IAM is used to validate tenant identity and control access to CodeArts Governance.

IAM is a basic service provided by Huawei Cloud for permission management. It helps CodeArts Governance control access permissions.

With IAM, you can add users to a user group and configure policies to control their access to CodeArts Governance resources. You can allow or deny access to a specific CodeArts Governance resource in a fine-grained manner.
